BJP national president Amit Shah vows ‘Owaisi Mukth Hyderabad’

Hyderabad: BJP national president Amit Shah on Tuesday vowed to rid Hyderabad from the clutches of Asaduddin Owaisi’s Majlis-e-Ittehadul Muslimeen (MIM), if the BJP is voted to power in Telangana.

He also spoke about the atrocities of Rajakars on the people of Telangana during the Nizam rule. “Will you forget the atrocities by the Rajakars?” he asked the people while lashing out at caretaker Telangana Chief Minister K Chandrasekhar Rao for not celebrating the Hyderabad Liberation Day on every September 17, out of fear for Owaisi.

Terming public interest litigations seeking direction to the CBI to challenge discharge order given to BJP chief Amit Shah in the Sohrabuddin Sheikh encounter case as “politically motivated”, the agency on Wednesday informed the Bombay HC

“It is ‘Owaisi raj’ that is reigning supreme in Telangana. Rao has been dancing to the tunes of Owaisi”, he thundered. He criticized that KCR was adopting Muslim appeasement politics and was also been silent to the migration of Muslims from other countries to Hyderabad.

Shah was speaking at a well-attended election meeting in Karimnagar town on Wednesday. Vehemently opposing the 12 per cent reservations promised by KCR to Muslims, he said it would eat into the reservations of the eligible backward classes. “Will you accept such reservations at the cost of the opportunities for BCs, SCs and STs?” the BJP president said.

The political row over Rafale deal is narrowing the political divide at least between two political parties-- the BJP and the NCP.

He said the Grand Alliance formed by four parties including the Congress, the Telugu Desam, the CPI and the newly founded Telangana Jana Samithi (TJS) has no guts to face and defeat KCR and MIM. He asked the people to vote the BJP to power. Telangana is set to go to polls on December 7 this year.

The BJP chief charged KCR with failing Telangana by not keeping at least one of his 150 promises to the people of the state.

Dismissing the allegations of the opposition parties that the BJP and Telangana’s ruling Telangana Rashtra Samithi (TRS) parties are hand in glove, the two parties have been criticising each other on various issues.
